Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 261 Early submission
After he finished shouting in the outer courtyard, he went into the inner courtyard and shouted again.

The scientific examination is not only a test of strength, but also a test of luck.They were arranged in the yard during the county examination, and next to the stinky horn or in a place where the rain leaked in the future examinations. It was all bad luck and bad luck, and the examiners would not care.For example, if it rains now and you are arranged in the yard without an umbrella, that is your own business, and the examiners will not provide you with an umbrella.

At this time, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, the sky is getting darker and darker, and the rain will fall at some point.The examinees in the yard put up their umbrellas one after another, so as not to wet the test papers when it rained.Liang Xiankuan opened his umbrella and saw a scholar in his twenties without an umbrella in front of him, looking very desperate. He was very grateful to Du Jinning.

The wind is so strong that it is easy to get ink on the test paper if you are not careful.And the moment it rains, the wind blows obliquely, and it will inevitably bring the rain to the table in the corridor and wet the test paper.Du Jinning simply rolled up the second test paper and stuffed it into the test paper bag, then tightly sealed the lid of the bamboo tube containing clear water, and pressed it onto the test paper bag to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.

At this time, besides the Four Treasures of the Study, there was also a piece of blank paper on her desk, which was the draft paper sent to them.

Du Jinning took the test papers and did not rest, but wrote the answers and test poems on the draft paper.

She has a photographic memory, just glanced at it, and has memorized the content of the second test paper in her heart.Just write the answer right now.

Although this will delay some time, it is better to write the answers directly on the test paper, but in this case, it is better to be careful, lest haste makes waste.

But after writing three scripture and meaning questions, the rain finally started to "squeak".As the wind fluttered, rainwater immediately scattered in the corridor, and there were screams and screams one after another. The draft paper in Du Jinning's hand was also wet, and the ink quickly permeated the paper. The words she just wrote It turned into blobs of ink, and finally smudged into black, and I couldn't see what I just wrote.

The old man sitting on Du Jinning's right was extremely grateful to Du Jinning at this time.

You know, after the cheating incident, his mood was inevitably affected, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.He managed to get into the state just now, and was planning to speed up the test papers, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Du Jinning collecting the test papers, he was startled, and quickly rolled up the test papers on the table.

Du Jinning's careful protection of his test papers was noticed by Liu County Magistrate in the past, and now it is about to rain, so it is necessary to protect his test papers with him.

Because there is no test paper bag, he can only pour out the food in the basket, put the test paper on his lap, and then buckle the basket upside down on the test paper.There is also a table above the basket, so that the test papers can be protected as much as possible.

When he had done all this, the rain drifted in.When he saw someone not far away holding a dirty test paper soaked in ink and about to cry, he felt extremely grateful.

Du Jinning didn't care about the neighbors at the table, she focused all her attention on Liang Xiankuan.There is a roof blocking the place where they sit in the corridor. As long as they are careful, the test papers will not be destroyed, but the people sitting in the yard will be in trouble. hard to stop.

But the examination room in the courtyard was covered by umbrellas, and with the rain curtain, it was difficult to see the scene in the distance clearly. What happened to Liang Xiankuan, Du Jinning couldn't see at all at this time.She raised her head and could only beg God to open her eyes and let the rain stop soon.

The rain was not heavy, but the wind was blowing hard, and the rain drifted around with the direction of the wind.However, as the rain fell for a while, the wind gradually weakened, and the raindrops finally returned to their normal trajectory, and there was no more rain in the corridor.

After seeing this, everyone took out the test paper and started writing.

After the draft paper got wet, Du Jinning stopped writing.At this time, she rolled up the draft paper and wiped the table to make sure that the ink had not seeped onto the table. Then she took out the second test paper from the test paper bag and wrote the answers that she had written once on the test paper.

However, in order to prevent the rain from drifting in again, she took the test basket on the table and blocked it in front of the test papers, then unfolded a part of the draft paper and put it in the basket, letting it stick out halfway, like blocking half of the test papers. umbrella.In this way, if the rain comes again, she will have time to rescue her.

At the same time, she also accelerated the speed of writing test papers.

Because she had read the test questions once, when she had nothing to do just now, she had already gone through the previous Moyi and arithmetic questions in her mind, and she had drafted the Jingyi questions and test post poems, and she made the papers very fast. You don't have to think about it, you can write with a pen.In addition, she had practiced her writing speed a long time ago, and it only took less than half an hour to finish writing the second paper, which is less than two hours since the start of the exam.

The test paper cannot be altered, even if you feel that your writing is wrong or bad, you cannot change it.The longer you sit here, the more likely the test paper will get wet from the rain.Du Jinning simply rolled up the test paper and put it in the test paper bag, then packed up the things on the table, got up and left.

Although the number of questions in this county test is not too large, but because of the increased difficulty, classics and meanings, arithmetic, and test post poems all require a lot of time to think and calculate, and have experienced various outside worlds that are blown by wind and rain. Affected by various factors, many people have not even finished the first test paper at this time, and they only finish the first test paper if they are faster.The rule of the county examination is that no candles are lit, that is to say, today's examination will end when it gets dark and you can't see it.At this time, there are at least three hours before the end of the exam. As long as you don't get stuck too much on the next few big questions, there is still enough time.

But Du Jinning handed in the test paper together, which still stirred up the atmosphere in the examination room for a while.

Except for the students of Boyue College, most people thought that Du Jinning was hopeless because the test paper was wet by the rain, so he simply gave up the test and came back next year.Looking at his age, everyone can understand.

When you are young, you have the capital to start over.Unlike some people, such as the old man next door to Du Jinning, who passed the exam this year may not necessarily come to take the exam next year.Therefore, even if the test papers are wet or dirty by the rain, they would rather take a fluke mentality and hope that County Magistrate Liu will give them a chance based on today's weather, and will not give up the test rashly. , handing in the papers so early.
